Dynamic Spin Correlations in the Honeycomb Lattice Na_{2}IrO_{3} Measured by Resonant Inelastic x-Ray Scattering
A Kitaev quantum spin liquid is a prime example of novel quantum magnetism of spin-orbit entangled pseudospin-1/2 moments in a honeycomb lattice. Most candidate materials such as Na_{2}IrO_{3} have many competing exchange interactions beyond the minimal Kitaev-Heisenberg model whose small variations...
